Well, I have no cable, so I look for ways to get some digital entertainment. Lately I have been watching the first two seasons of Grey’s Anatomy, so I can catch up and actually have a coherent conversation with Emily about the show (pretty sure it is her fave). I have been getting the DVD’s [...]

Well, it has been almost a month, and I want to finish blogging about my vacation. Yes I have been slacking :)
Saturday of that week, we went up the Columbia River scenic highway, and then went to a ton of waterfalls. Now, you might think, eh, waterfalls, but these were just cool. The scenery around [...]

As of late I have been stuck in C++ world. MFC/Win32, pointers and HRESULT’s. Ugh. Earlier this week I got a chance to get back to C# and .NET (aka My Roots).
I needed to create a class library for a project, basically from scratch, since there was no existing library created. I started to go [...]

So I fired up VS2005, and wanted to make a quick prototype C# Console Application, except I couldn’t find the Project Template!!

It should add the templates back.
Good to go!

Went 4 Wheeling up north this weekend, just a small little trail ride, probably about 15 miles or so. Man I could get lost in the trails around my dad’s house. One thing that was crazy, 3 woodticks after. We got off [...]

I received my USB enclosure I ordered this week. Goodbye old 300 MHz server eating up juice and raising my electric bill, and hello new external hard drive on my desk, that I can turn on and off when I need. An extra 80 GB - nice addition.
Here is the enclosure I bought.

So, to pick up where I left off. Walking around in Seattle, WA. We hopped on the train back to Portland. I can’t remember I rode in a train, probably in Duluth on the North Shore. It was cool, 3 hour ride. Something different, and you get to see the countryside instead of worry about [...]
